  1. Making data sharing with social care a reality

  2. Making data sharing with social care a reality “In the short to medium term: - between professionals’ case management systems In the longer term: - through citizen care records” Richard Pantlin - Social Care Lead, Health & Social Care Council, techUK - Consultant to Association of Directors of Adult Social Services

  3. Sharing between professionals’systems • A sad history: • Single Assessment Process / Common Assessment Framework • False assumptions • IT - driven • Incompatible timings / priorities / contracts between NHS & SC partners and their IT suppliers

  4. Positive enablers from Dept of Health • 14 Integration Pioneers • Business process driven • But only some include informatics at outset • Eg North West London; Southend; Kent; Leeds + Northants; Mcr • Better Care Fund • Driving plans to obtain NHS numbers against SC clients • Joint plans & monitoring requirements • “Open API’s” – good in principle but clarity required as to processes to be supported • Tech Fund Phase 2?

  5. Other enablers • Secure email • GCSX now being widely adopted across councils • Shared networks & desktops • Eg in Hampshire & Leeds • Caldicott 2

  6. The first step: Use of NHS numbers in social care • Summer 2013: “At most 13% of councils” • Now – anecdotally, another third have plans (adults) • Child Protection Information Sharing • Funding NHS number load – incl some adult records • HSCIC ASC Data Extraction Feasibility Survey - will establish definitive picture • ADASS Information Management Group advice - on best options for obtaining NHS nos – local NHS can help!

  7. Lessons for NHS professionals Be clear on touchpoints of care processes Councils and their IT suppliers are ready to engage Include informatics in plans from outset

  8. Personal Care Records • Owned online by citizens • Overcomes information governance issues • Can improve data quality • Care Bill creates business case for online self-service • 45% increase in people needing care assessments for the “Dilnot Care Account” from April 2016 • All main SC IT suppliers have solutions • Requirement to transfer client care records between councils will drive use of NHS number

  9. What’s stopping us? • “SC clients not online” • True for some but certainly not new cohort of carers • Capacity issues in councils – financial & human • Yes, greatly diminished resources • Other urgent priorities arising from Care Bill • Smaller councils especially affected • ADASS IMG trying to assist nationally; also limited capacity • Possible role for regional CSU’s to support? • Citizen-based systems emerging from personalisation

  10. Conclusions • Unique opportunity over next 3 years • Technological innovations (smartphones, web, wifi, etc) • Informatics in SC high up Dept of Health agenda • Changing demographics So: Allow integrated care pathways to drive data sharing Foster innovative citizen-centric applications
